Your weekly streaming digest — verified release data, critic scores, and a straight verdict on what's worth your time.
🔴 NETFLIX
This is the strongest Netflix week of the month. Five new originals drop in the next five days, anchored by two returning favorites.
🏆 MUST-WATCH
A Good Girl's Guide to Murder — Season 2 (drops May 27)
🍅 RT Critics: 83% · Audience: Too early (just premiered)
⭐ IMDb: Pending | Genre: Mystery & Thriller · Crime
Emma Myers is back as Pip Fitz-Amobi — and critics say Season 2 is a significant upgrade. Where Season 1 was often compared to a YA procedural, this follow-up goes darker and more emotionally layered. The case structure is tighter, Myers's performance is drawing comparisons to the best prestige-crime leads, and the final episodes leave threads you'll want to pull.
"A star-making turn by Emma Myers... one of streaming's most addictive mystery-thriller series." — FandomWire (9/10) "Season 2 has forged its identity and hit a stride." — Collider (8/10)
If you liked: Broadchurch, Wednesday, The Crow Girl
Verdict: MUST-WATCH ✅

👍 WORTH IT
The Four Seasons — Season 2 (drops May 28)
🍅 RT Critics: 78% (S1 score; S2 TBD at air) · Audience: 63%
⭐ IMDb: ~7.4 | Genre: Comedy · Romance | TV-MA
Tina Fey, Steve Carell, and Colman Domingo return for another four-seasons story of friendship, drift, and complicated love. Season 1 had critics mostly onside for its ensemble chemistry even when the writing wobbled. Season 2 brings a new shake-up: the fallout from that divorce announcement ripples further. It's comfort TV with sharper edges than it lets on.
Similar to: Nobody Wants This, Forever, Fleabag (lighter end)
Verdict: WORTH IT 👍
